Cute Catch Up

Another post thats just for me to get some cute pictures up and some cute stories written down. Well cute to me :).

Big H has been obsessed with the sun lately. When it stats getting dark outside he says, "What happened mom? Where did the sun go? What happened?"
I tell him the sun went to the other side of the Earth.
This morning he woke up and said, "Look it's the sun. That's the sun?"

I've said before that Big H really takes on his role as big brother. He sort of puts himself in charge of the other kids. He has even tried to spank Baby M. I told him that's not up to him that's up to mom. Last night I heard him yelling at Little H, "I can't spank you!"
Don't ask me what that was about. But at least he gets spanking isn't up to him.

The boys go with us to the doctor, and we tell them that the doctor is going to look and listen to the baby. Sometimes when we're out and about they say, "I want to go to the baby's."

Baby M is talking more. He says, "I did it," all the time. When he sees a train he says, "Toot! Toot!" And He says, "Ma," when he sees me, Craig or my parents. He's just a doll. He comprehends so much and I find it adorable.

Baby M had a sad first. He's the first of the boys to get stung be a bee. I turned around and he was wiggling, rubbing his arm and starting to cry. He then pointed to the wall and I saw a bee climbing up the trim. I grabbed the fly swatter and killed it-- I almost felt more vengeful towards it than I did towards the ants that were climbing all over Big H at the park. Baby M thought the swatting was pretty funny and went around them house swatting at everything. There's a pic below of his sting. He hardly cried at all.

Little H and I were by ourselves the other night. We got in the car to drive to my parents house to meet up with everyone. Little H wanted to sit in the front, and its only a mile drive so I let him. I needed to top off the air in the tire first though.

It popped coming home from the doctors back in June and since we couldn't afford tires at all, even though we seriously needed to replace all of them, Craig patched it. It held up really well for a month or so, but then developed a slow leak. We would have to fill it up every other day or so but we always waited until it was dire leaving us driving around with anxious pits in our stomachs looking for a gas station with free air. We got in the habit of topping it off twice a day when we passed the places we knew had free air.--

I took neighborhood streets to the gas station, and pulled up to the compressor. Little H opened the glove box, grabbed the tire gage  and handed it to me. I filled the tire up and handed the tire gage back to Little H, who, very nicely, put it back in the glove box.

Little H likes his one on one time. He loves to have mom jump in the pool, or the lake, with him or climb up into play places, or onto big blow up slides, and go down with him. I've had to do all this all while big and pregnant. He's lucky he's cute. He wanted to stay with grandma the other night, but he wanted it to be just him, so he started telling every one to go and get in the car. "Get in the car mom! No you can't stay!"
One time I pulled up to my parents house and both him and Big H started yelling at me, "Go away Mom!"
They hadn't gotten to go to the store with grandma yet and they weren't going to miss out. Makes you feel loved doesn't it?
:)

We often take Craig to work and pick him up. As we pull up to the building they like to yell, "I see it! I see Dad's work!"

The boys like to play roller coaster in the car. When we go down hills or around sharp turns they yell, "Put your hands up!"
Then when its over they say, "I want to do it again."

The boys are quite the cute little handful.  I feel bad they have such a monster mom right now, but they are very forgiving and sweet to me still. Big H often brings me flowers, which I feel like I don't deserve. They also say things like, "You naughty mom!" Or, " You mad at me? You took my movies?" -- this was after a couple weeks of the battle of the naps and I took their movies away. Big H went on about that for a couple days.

Got to love them! :)
